When You Love Someone

Come home early after class, don’t be hanging round the back of the schoolyard
I’ve been called up by your teacher, she says she can’t even reach you cause you’re so far
You’ve been talking with your fists, we didn’t raise you up like this now did we?
There’ve been changes in this house, things you don’t know about in this family

It don’t make sense, but nevertheless, you’ve got to believe us, it’s all for the best
It don’t make sense, the way things go, son you should know
Sometimes moms & dads fall out of love
Sometimes two homes are better than one

Some things you can’t tell your sister cause she’s still too young
Yeah you’ll understand, when you love someone
There ain’t no one here to blame and nothing’s gonna change with your old friends
Your room will stay the same cause you’ll only be away on the weekends

It don’t make sense, but nevertheless, you’ve got to believe us, it’s all for the best
It don’t make sense, it don’t add up, but we’ll always love you, no matter what
Sometimes moms & dads fall out of love
Sometimes two homes are better than one

Some things you can’t tell your sister cause she’s still too young
Yeah you’ll understand, when you love someone
Come home early after class, don’t be hanging round the back of the schoolyard
And if we’re crying on the couch don’t let it freak you out it’s just been so hard

Sometimes moms & dads fall out of love
Sometimes the best intentions just ain’t enough
Some things you can’t tell your sister cause she’s still too young
Yeah you’ll understand, when you love someone, when you love someone

When you love someone, when you love someone
